Raw Photographs III

And finally we have the third collection of unedited, unfiltered, untouched photographs. We begin at the State House and continue, as usual, toward the southeast. There are lots of things of interest here for the writing stage. Pay close attention to the replica of the Liberty Bell. Also, the monument to the women of the Confederacy is, in a word, bizarre. Actually, that doesn't begin to describe it. There are a couple of poems (or something like a poem) on the plaques around the base; we'll most assuredly be using some of that material.

Schwitters has promised to post his pictures from the first day sometime soon. And, for the record, we had some trouble with the camera today and kept taking three pictures at once, which is why there are occasionally a bunch that are very similar all in a row. This step, though, in the rules I've given myself (which Schwitters may very well ignore) is to post them all. We'll call it transparency.
